Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Uri Lublin 2011-10-19 13:20:14 UTC
This bug is for spice-xpi, cloned from the bug for spice-client.

Let users of spice-xpi (such as RHEV-M) set WAN options.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #747312 +++

Description of problem:
WAN options such as --disable-effects and --color-depth are supported by spice-client but only when running spicec from command line.

This bug is for enabling the controller (such as spice-x or spice-xpi) to set those WAN options.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-10-19 20:05:34 UTC
Quality Engineering Management has reviewed and declined this request.  You may
appeal this decision by reopening this request.

Comment 6 Peter Hatina 2012-02-20 14:19:33 UTC
In current state, spice-xpi launches spicec and passes all the necessary options via unix-socket. There is no way, how to pass any other option via command line to spicec.

Example:
$ spicec --controller -h localhost -p 3001
spicec: controller cannot be combined with other options

I suggest to open new bugs for spice-client and spice-protocol to implement those 2 options (disable-effects and color-depth).

Comment 7 David Blechter 2012-02-29 13:51:15 UTC
Moving to 6.4  due to the missing definitions from rhevm PM.

Comment 10 Yonit Halperin 2012-03-22 14:35:32 UTC
Updating requirements: 

The user portal will be able to set the following
(1) WanColorDepth = string that can be "16" or "32"
(2) WanDisableEffects = comma separated string that contains one or more of the options {animation, wallpaper,font-smooth} or alternatively "all".

spice-protocol/contreller_prot and spice-gtk's controller must be updated to support those options.

Moving back to 6.3 (?)

Comment 11 David Blechter 2012-03-23 17:22:45 UTC
to support rhevm 3.1 functionality -> back to 6.3 with exception, not beta blocker
